Title:           1. I'd lean towards Yes, the leg is around so it seems like it should count 2.

1. I'd lean towards Yes, the leg is around so it seems like it should count
2. Probably no, sort of looks like he's resting his hoof on her
3. Group hug? I dunno
4. I'd say yes again because the leg is around but then that said, it's not really a hug hug or what you'd think when you hear the word "hug", which is where confusion comes from
5. Really don't know, she grabs his face and then pulls herself closer
6. Hoof is around, inclined to yes but still not sure if it's a hug hug
7. It's more of a grab but looks like a hug too?
8. Is she hugging those gems?
9. She's hugging the dirt, I'd say Yes. I have Rarity hugging Tom included so I think I'm including inanimate objects, let me know what you think
10. Again, hoof moves around the neck, Pinkie does not lower her head though
11. Babies being burped, don't know if this counts, more of a hold but is that a hug?
12. Arms are around, but it's not really a hug so I'd say no.
13. Pileon, counts as a group hug?
14. Group huddle, hug or nah?
15. Not sure again, he grabs Dash's face and then pulls her towards him, I'd be inclined to saying yes but it feels a bit off
16. Not a hug, wondering whether this counts as a Hoofbump. It was a hoof-shake in the show, but the Granny and Flim sort of put their hooves together and then proceed with it, whereas other hoofshakes are done as more of an instant hold and shake like AJ to Twilight in S1E1.
17. Hugging a book, I'd say yes.
18. Those two ponies next to the fountain, looks a hug to me.
19. Hoof goes around, I'd probably say no on this occasion though
20. Hoof around, not sure though.
21. Same as above but this one looks more of a yes.
22. Hoof around again, not what you'd think of as a "hug" though perhaps?
23. Unsure, it's not a face brush but I'd lean towards yes
24. Probably a hug
25. Don't know, looks like it in the image but in context he's grabbing them with interest and saying "Word on the street is Fluttershy doesn't take no for an answer".
26. No, not sure why I've got that in here
27. Hoof's around, but again, not sure it's what you'd think of when you think "hug"
28. Looks like it in the image, but in context he puts one arm around the dragon as he's laughing at a joke, then puts the other arm around as he continues laughing. Not sure if it should count.
29. Is putting your arm around someone classed as a hug? I don't know.
30. Yes
31. One hoof i around, the other looks more like it's on the mane and it's sad Fluttershy so I'm not sure it's worth including.
32. Not sure.
33. Are they "hugging" his leg? Should it be included?
34. Hugging the Moose?
35. Picking a Filly up or hugging a Filly?
36. Hoof is around, not sure it counts.
 
 
Oh and if you've made it this far, one more I forgot to include http://imgur.com/5soo2Gs
I'd say it looks more like a grab and it's also sad Spike
